In this episode, I share a conversation I had recently with Lauren Malone, assistant professor of communication at the University of Tampa. I met Lauren at a conference in Tampa, where she was presenting her ongoing experiments integrating AI into her communications and media studies courses. In particular, she shared about her use of Google NotebookLM in a game studies course that focused on writing for digital games. Lauren was already on her second semester kicking the tires on NotebookLM in this course, and I wanted to learn more, so I invited her on the podcast. In the interview, she talks about creative thinking with AI, the importance of the struggle in learning, very different student responses to AI, and changes she’s already making to her use of AI as this work in progress continues.
